At the end of March, Harlingen-based SeaZip Offshore Service BV will bring two new service vessels into service for the support of wind farms at sea.
The vessels,of Damen FCS 2610 type, called SeaZip 3 and SeaZip 4, are going to sail under the Dutch flag and were built by Damen Shipyards in Singapore.
Both vessels will be completed at Damen Shipyards in Gorinchem and delivered to SeaZip Offshore Service in March.
Currently, SeaZip Offshore Service operates two very similar sister ships, SeaZip 1 and 2. Both vessels have long-term charter contracts with the German RWE energy group and are put to use in the Nordsee Ost offshore wind farm, which will become operational later this year.
Mr. Jan Reier Arends, Managing Directors of SeaZip Offshore Service , said: “The fact that the SeaZip 1 and 2 remain in service during the winter months is noteworthy. It is an indication of how welcome this new generation of efficient and 100% seaworthy service vessels is. Experiences with both vessels have been very good. They are swift, reliable, comfortable and safe.”
